Ed & Eddie's Epic Escapade

I got off at Waterfront Station this morning to meet-up with... Edwina! She invited me along her quest to get the rest of the stamps for the 2009 Tourism ChallengeFirst we took a ride with the Vancouver Trolley Company. We stopped by Canada Place to switch trolleys. In front of the new Vancouver Convention Centre... Edwina counting her stamps... On the second trolley now to Stanley Park... LOL!  We got spoken to by the driver because we were talking so loud in the back. Hey, a Ford GT! Robson and Thurlow, ground zero of the '94 Stanley Cup Riot... The traffic along Georgia Street... This tree always reminds me of the opening scene of "Ong-bak". Hey, we filmed "Harper's Island" here for a couple of days. Nice art and arse... Walking towards... The Vancouver Aquarium. Sea turtle! Jeff says they like to eat bananas. Garden eels... Big ass fish! Fred's favourite fish, piranhas... These birds get their colour from what they eat. Nap time... The snake and Edwina... It's hard to see this toad. Edwina and the snake... These photos are for Karen. She loves cockroaches. Itsy bitsy spider... Another one taking a nap... Sea otter... Baby beluga! Must drink more milk... The view downstairs... Walk like an Egyptian... Back on top... Ooohhh, jellyfish! They're so cool! Eddie taking a closer look... The mother ship... LOL! Archer fish... Welcome to the jungle. This is like the catfish Homer Simpson caught one time. I'd hate to clean this tank. "Kermit the Frog here..." There was a frog exhibit here. The coelacanth, thought to be extinct, but then they caught one of the coast of Madagascar. There's Spinnaker, the Pacific White-sided Dolphin. He's so fast! Taking the Big Bus now. We were having fun today! We made a little pit stop to eat... A Japa Dog! I don't know how many of these I've eaten already. We returned to Canada Place to watch a movie at the CN IMAX. That was it.  Edwina completed her task, so we went inside...
The Vancouver Convention Centre, so she could apply for her Privilege Pass.
I bumped into Lucas who was in the line-up too! Nice view from here too! A lot of people took part in this quest. Finally, Edwina gets her photo taken. Edwina and her new Privelege Pass...The Veendam ready to cast off... There's the passengers taking part in the safety drill. A seaplane taking off... Doggie! More seaplanes... A water park at Coal Harbour... You can see the top of the Vancouver Convention Centre from here. PBOs spotted! Bocce and babes... Nice, very nice... Look, another Japa Dog stand!  This one has interior seating though. Some more PBOs! We walked all the way to English Bay. Who's the prick with the bike?  LOL! Another PBO! Doggie! Pair of PBOs! Edwina chillin' on the bench... I spotted Arezou and Jefferson walking towards us! Jefferson with his girls... PBO on a bike! Wet doggie! "Huh, huh, huh..." Doggie and PBOs... "What up, my bitches?" That's my name! Edwina and the Inukshuk... PBOs and Edwina... PBOs playing volleyball... The VPD on bikes... Edwina and the Burrard Street Bridge... We witnessed some junglefever. To finish off our night, we met-up with Dave and Andrea at the Loose Moose Tapas Bar & Grill for some... Steak and Prawns!  It was only $6.99!  There's Brandon, who joined us a little later.  Big thanks to Edwina for letting me take part in this escapade!!!
